Statement of Action

I will finish my B.S. in biochemistry and minor in Spanish. I will take the OAT either next winter or early spring. I also plan on participating often in Eyes on Health and in the pre-optometry club. I have also set up opportunities to shadow more optometrists this summer and plan on getting in around 50 hours of shadowing. In addition to shadowing, studying for the OAT, and volunteering, I am taking physics so that I can get both 1250 and 1251 in before taking the OAT. I also plan on staying active in the Biological Sciences Scholar group.

Vision Statement

Coming into college I wanted to be an orthopedic surgeon. However, after shadowing two orthopedic surgeons and various other doctors, I have decided that optometry seems to be better for me. I still plan on completing my B.S. in Biochemistry and a minor in Spanish. With the help of my academic advisor, I have planned out all the classes that I take until graduation. I plan on taking the OAT either this coming winter or next spring.

Abstract

Hi! I am Brent Keating and this is my e portfolio. This e-portfolio contains/will contain my academic achievements and involvements. This site will act as a timeline outlining my experiences and achievements as a college student. This will hopefully be found useful for letters of recommendations, as well as act as a space to save and organize what I have achieved over the years. This will be useful for scholarships, interviews, and applications. The “about me” section gives a summary of me as a person, while the artifacts paint a picture of what I have done academically. The “year in review” section acts as a time line organizer. The GOALS section will relate what I have done and what I plan on doing, with the ideals of the scholar program.  The last part of this site, the “career” section, will express how my skills and experiences will help me be prepared for my future career.
